Wikipedia:
Superman is a superhero who appears in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster, and debuted in the comic book Action Comics #1 (cover-dated June 1938 and published April 18, 1938).[1] Superman has been adapted to a number of other media, which includes radio serials, novels, films, television shows, theater, and video games.

Superman is the archetype of the superhero: he wears an outlandish costume, uses a codename, and fights evil with the aid of extraordinary abilities. Although there are earlier characters who arguably fit this definition, it was Superman who popularized the superhero genre and established its conventions. He was the best-selling superhero in American comic books up until the 1980s.[2]

DC Comics's Superman franchise, based on the character of the same name created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in June 1938, has seen the release of various films since its inception.[1] The character debuted in cinemas in a series of animated shorts beginning in 1941, and then was the protagonist of two movie serials in 1948 and 1950. An independent studio, Lippert Pictures, released the first Superman feature film, Superman and the Mole Men, starring George Reeves, in 1951. In 1973, the film rights to the Superman character were purchased by Ilya Salkind, Alexander Salkind, and Pierre Spengler. After numerous scripts and several years in development, Richard Donner was hired as their director, and he shot two films, Superman (1978) (marketed as Superman: The Movie), and Superman II (1980), at the same time, both starring Christopher Reeve. Donner had already shot eighty percent of Superman II before it was decided to finish shooting the first film. The Salkinds fired Donner after Superman's release and commissioned Richard Lester as the director to finish Superman II. Lester returned to direct Superman III (1983). The Salkinds also produced the related spin-off Supergirl (1984). They then sold the rights to Cannon Films, which produced the poorly reviewed Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987). Ilya Salkind commissioned a fifth Superman script before Warner Bros. acquired the rights entirely in 1993.

Over the course of 11 years, Warner Bros. developed and then cancelled three projects: Tim Burton's Superman Lives, which would have starred Nicolas Cage; Wolfgang Petersen's Batman vs. Superman; and the J. J. Abrams-scripted Superman: Flyby which went between directors Joseph "McG" Nichols and Brett Ratner). In 2004, the studio hired Bryan Singer to take over the films, and released Superman Returns in 2006, starring newcomer Brandon Routh. Donner's director's cut for Superman II was also released that year. Despite positive reviews, Warner Bros. was disappointed with the financial performance of Superman Returns, and canceled Singer's proposed sequel, which would have been released in 2009. The studio nearly started production of a Justice League film with George Miller directing and D. J. Cotrona as Superman for a 2009 release, but it was shelved at the last minute in 2008.

The film series was rebooted in 2013 with Man of Steel, directed by Zack Snyder with Henry Cavill starring as Superman. Man of Steel launched what became known as the DC Extended Universe, a cinematic franchise intended to rival the highly successful Marvel Cinematic Universe. Cavill next appeared as Superman in the DCEU films Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) and Justice League (2017) (both again directed by Snyder), and in the director's cut of Justice League, Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021); he then made a cameo appearance in the mid-credits scene of Black Adam (2022). The Flash (2023) featured Superman cameos portrayed by Henry Cavill, Nicolas Cage, George Reeves, and Christopher Reeve. Sasha Calle, along with Helen Slater, appeared as Supergirl in the film.

A new film starring the character, titled simply Superman, is scheduled for release in July 2025. Written and directed by James Gunn, and co-produced by Gunn and Peter Safran, it is intended to be the first live-action film of the DC Universe (DCU) media franchise and shared universe. David Corenswet has been cast as Superman for the film.

    They made an entire Superman suit to celebrate Pup's milestone
  • @adzinco6916
    why is superman staring at me in the thumbnail like he knows what i did
  • @Na-mi3dx
    I simply do not understand THIS being the picture they wanted to use.
  • @dynaguy3
    There’s no way this thick suit is fitting under Clark’s normal clothes. Same problem as Cavill’s suit. I guess that’s why he has to change in his apartment.
  • @tonymata8070
    Also wanted to add that I believe the New 52 suit was very techy and went over his body, and he had those knee pads on the suit. But they're obviously not going with the nanotech suit idea, I think this is basically fabric from Krypton. Hence, all the pipelines and for how the symbol looks.
  • @Larry
    "Can we not make him look like Homelander please?"
  • @edviza1935
    The sad part is, even though I didn’t like most of the snyderverse, the suits were absolutely perfect. Superman, BVS batman, wonder woman, aquaman, deadshot, black manta, harley, and probably more, all just absolutely perfect designs
  • @Aviator-Chicken
    Seeing the suit really makes theorize what James Gunn meant by a "Reverse Kingdom Come" story line. This is the suit Superman starts with and what he wears while making a name for himself. The suit is more inherently kryptonian, and alien. But as he begins to be called "Superman" and begins to accept his human nature he changes the emblem to a more classic S (maybe it's Lois Lane's idea?) and his suit will loose a lot of that alien look and look more boy scout. Even if he get's it in the last 20 seconds I do believe this suit is going to evolve over the franchise
  • @cameronbrown940
    "The classic logo is too militaristic" I'm sorry that is the dumbest shit I ever heard
  • I honestly like this suit. Not what I was expecting, but I think it works. Maybe it’ll look nicer with better lighting.
  • I feel like it's for the best that the first supervillain that he's facing as Superman is Lex Luthor. With Superman's supervillains (and I think supervillains in general) there's a clear food chain. And Lex does feel like the clear beginning of that chain with Superman.
  • @mygetawayart
    yeah i wholly agree, it's a baffling picture to show off this costume The only reason i can think it would make sense to use this is to set expectations real low only to get surprised when we see it in action but it feels like hopium
  • @andrb8945
    Im not gay, but that Corenswet guy sure is handsome.
  • @Jokergordon
    To be honest it looks like a costume Martha made and for protection as a mother she puts shoulder and knee pad maybe that’s just a theory
  • @RDL7Pro
    The suit has a alien space suit vibe which I think why it has the lines like that Also love how practical and tactile it looks, not skin tight but a actual suit that u can see being put on and off
  • @davidaamaya1
    At first, it kind of reminded me of the CW suit
  • That’s a Great Superman Suit that is Colorful and Alien Looking while Accurate to the Character.
  • @tomhibbert6486
    I'm getting new 52 vibes from it because of the panel shape like tacture they put on it
  • @jacobbelow4136
    Once again, so happy to see that you finally reached your 100K milestone, Pup!
